Found a Cute Picture!

Well, take out the goofy looking grandma and we have one super cute picture! Doesn't it look like he is giving that all innocent look? But we know better! I have discovered that I can take semi-ok pictures all by myself. I thought my arms were too stubby, but guess not.

Ohhhh... he had a doctors appt and he is now 12lbs 13oz and they took his feeding tube out. He is nose-noodle less now! YIPPEE!!!!! He is so cute.

Thanks for stopping in!

My Little Man

Maybe chewing these fingers will make me quit crying!
Little man knows how to attract the chicks!
Christian is getting so big! It seems every time I see him he is so much bigger! He is sitting up by himself. He is standing supported. Now maybe he will get some hair back! He is so bald! But thank goodness I love a bald head!
Bryan is gone until tomorrow. He has been gone for 4 days flying. Nicole will be happy to have him back. Christian has decided that he likes to scream. Real loud. Often.
I got to babysit Christian the other day. It sure was fun. But for a little guy with just half a heart he sure has a full set of lungs! He does a scream that makes your ear drums hurt. I am not exaggerating. They actually vibrate so hard that they hurt! I think my hearing is going to be damaged if he does not stop that pretty soon.
Tonight we are bracing for snow. Can you believe it??? Here it is almost the middle of June and we are expecting snow! I had to go out and cover all of my flowers and plants. I have to work the rodeo (remember, I am a medic) this Saturday. I hope it is warmer by then.
Anyway, thanks for popping in and checking on us. Things are pretty smooth going for the little man now. It is just a big waiting game.
Take care!
